Anyone Ryder Cup’ping’ it this week?

I’m off on Wednesday to Paris, watching the practice and open ceremony on Thursday as well. Can’t wait for Friday’s tee off.

Being a Brit, I’ll be supporting Europe all the way, but boy the U.S. has an amazing team. I’ll be amazed if they don’t retain it.

Anyway good luck to both teams and let’s hope it’s a classic.

I won’t be in Paris, but I’ll watch as much as I can. There is so much young talent on both teams this year. The American team is deeper but I think both sides are fairly evenly matched through their top 10 players. It should be a great tournament!

I have tickets for Saturday and Sunday, but will be in the neighborhood as of Wednesday to play some golf with friends.
Looking forward to the tournament. Being from Belgium I strongly support the Euros, but I think it will be a though one to bring home.

This should be a even match. So much talent on both sides. Americans had it going their way this morning, but those long putts in the last match gave the Europeans momentum going into the afternoon and they put a beat down on us. Hope it gets close going into Sunday so they will feel the pressure in singles.

Very good from Europe so far, Moli-Wood emerging as the new Poulter. Will be tough for the USA to get this back now.

I’ve been glued to the TV, by all accounts it’s quite the white wash. For me the Ryder cup is where golf meets football but the fans to go far sometimes, the American fans are in my opinion worse when played in the US but being outnumbered in Paris it seems they don’t like a taste of their own medicine and the team are poor. Getting one over the US at golf is always entertaining ��

This has been electric so far. The atmosphere Friday afternoon was totally incredible. We stayed behind for a few hours in the bar partying away :-)
